Tracey McNeely's 25 Days of Christmas Tags & Tag You're It #11



Last week, I was asked, along with the rest of the Reverse Confetti DT, 
Well, this week, Tracey asked the Tag You're It Challenge DT to play along
with her challenge, by using this week's TYIC card as inspiration.


I love this gorgeous card by Maureen!
Here's my card:


I die cut two PTI Tag Sale 5 tags from vintage cream card stock and some Crate Paper patterned paper.
I stamped my Wplus9 Pretty Poinsettia & leaves on their coordinating dies.
The banner and sentiment are from the PTI Tinsel & Tags Kit.
I tied some lawn fawn twine to my tags and used my PTI woodgrain impression plate for the background.

Be sure to check out Tracey McNeely's blog 
to see the Christmas Tags the rest of the Tag You're It Challenge DT made.
You'll want to leave a comment there -- there are lots of prizes to be won 
(from the following manufacturers: Reverse Confetti, Clearly Besotted, CAS-ual Fridays, 
Neat and Tangled,  Paper Smooches & Lawn Fawn.)

And, if you'd like another chance to win, leave a comment here on my blog.
Tracey will draw from the comments left today on the Tag You're It Challenge DT blogs 
to win something, too.

And remember to visit the Tag You're It Challenge Blog to play along, if you'd like.
You have until Wednesday, December 3rd to link up your project.


Thanks for looking!

Your card is beautiful, Leigh! I love the soft cream background with the woodgrain embossing. That is just so serene and elegant. And your layered tags are amazing, too. The poinsettia is SO gorgeous! Absolutely love the watercolor look to the stamping and that lovely soft pink!

Gorgeous tag, Leigh (my comments all sound the same, but gosh darn, everything you create is gorgeous!), with the eye-catching poinsettia! Tracey's tag series is making abundantly clear that I *need* to add a variety of tag dies to my collection. The PTI die you've used here is calling my name...loudly!

I like the idea of using tags on the cards. They are so pretty and you can use smaller stamps to embellish them. So often the small stamps go unused.
thanks for sharing some great cards.
